"Santi Giovanni e Paolo and the Scuola de San Marco" is a 1725 painting by Canaletto, a renowned Italian artist known for his vedute, or detailed city views. This painting captures the grandeur of the Basilica of Santi Giovanni e Paolo in Venice, with its grand facade, and the adjacent Scuola de San Marco, a confraternity building. Canaletto's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the depiction of architectural features, the bustling square, and the canal teeming with gondolas. The painting is housed in the Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden, Germany.
